  Hi. Thanks for the feedback! I experience the same problem here. Although it sometimes still works. I'll have a look.

  On Maya 2015 I select an edge loop, and running the script switches to face selection mode, and clicking results in all faces selected situation...

  Does the job, but it took me a while to figure out that a button click is needed to finish the script job. Could use a better step by step, a speed pass and most importantly, it needs to be able to preserve the users state of Maya (i.e. respecting the component selection mode I am currently in)
